Tales of Failure and Foolishness

Dave called me yesterday before my second appointment with Dr. Yang and said "I have the greatest thing ever. God bless Walmart." It was decided that he would not tell me what he had procured and instead I would have to wait until he came over later on that afternoon. And upon his arrival, had he over-hyped his purchase? You tell me.



Actually, don't. Because some people are just haters. Anyway, the correct answer would be "no". He had not. Packed in with the DVD were two (2) pairs of 3-D glasses, which we figured would nicely supplement the two (2) pairs we already had left over from the My Bloody Valentine 3D adventure of a couple weeks back. What to do with four (4) pairs of glasses and just two people?



Holler at Lucas and Amanda down the street... and down that other street.

So, it was decided we'd watch the movie at 8:00, and Davekwon and I were just giddy with anticipation. We'd both viewed the film multiple times, but never as GOD INTENDED.

The couple arrived, and we settled in for the horror. And nothing happened. I did not see snakes leaping out at me through the screen, nor the handle of a broom coming dangerously close to whacking me in the skull. You see, our 3D glasses (mine and Dave's that is) were not like the other 3D glasses. I really don't understand how it all works, but it was uncool. On top of that, the 3D the other glasses were actually receiving threatened to give Lucas a headache. So there we were. Four people with the same number pairs of glasses, and it was all just so futile. Know what we did? We went back tot he main menu and selected the 2D presentation instead.

A part of me died.

Now, onto the promised foolishness. It is brief and inexplicable.

I started playing Resident Evil: Code Veronica yesterday. I took probably five years off my lifespan from the stress. And then... I played some more today. What on earth is wrong with me?



Why do you mock me, franchise?
